Jade and I walk into the school, holding hands with our fingers interlocked. People stare at us, talking loud enough where I can hear them. The voices muttering things like: "Jade and Tori are an item", "I heard Jade dumped Beck for Tori", "Wow, even dating a hot, cool guy like Beck ; she still turn lesbian." I ignore them all. I didn't care if we were the fresh new gossip that was happening at Hollywood Arts. I didn't care if everyone thought Jade and I were only dating each other to look edgy, versatile, or hip. I didn't care if everyone thought Jade would soon dump me to date guys again or vice versa because it was just easier. No, the only thing I care about was that I was happy. That was the only thing that matter to me right now.

We walk up to my locker, I let go of her hand as I open my locker.

"So, what do you want to do tonight?" I ask her.

"I'm thinking we can see a movie. Maybe we can rent a dvd and watch it at my place," she replies.

"That sounds good. What movie do you want to see?" I say, before realizing that asking Jade what movie to see was most likely a bad idea.

"I'm thinking the clockwork orange. It's a movie about a criminal who gets brainwashed," she says, smiling.

"I don't know, I think," I stop as I see Andre, Cat, and Robbie walking towards us down the hallway, "Alright, here's our chance. They are coming."

Jade looks behind her and smiles, she looks into my eyes with her icy stare.

"Hey, how are you guys?" Andre asks us.

I close my locker, that's when Jade leans over and kisses me. "I will see you in class," she says, before she walks off. The others just look at me, their faces blank. I just smile, thinking of what to talk about to change the subject.

"So, what are you guys up to?" my attempt fails as Andre and Robbie still stare at me and Cat trying hard not to look at me.

"So when did you and Jade start dating?" Robbie asks me.

"We kinda just started, really," I say, "It hasn't been that long."

"And does Beck know?" Andre asks. I stand there, thinking, maybe longer than I should.

"Yeah, yes. I'm sure she told Beck about us. They did break up a couple of weeks ago, from what I heard." I respond. Everyone else just nod their heads. "Well, I have to go to class." I turn around and see Beck standing right behind me. I look behind me and see everyone watching us like we were some type of reality show and they were waiting to see what Beck and I will do.

"Hey, Tori," Beck says. I turn and look at him in his dark brown eyes.

"Hey, Beck," I say.

"What are you guys talking about?" Beck asks me.

"We weren't talking about Jade and Tori being a couple now," Robbie blurts out.

"Robbie!" I scold him. Beck places his hand on my shoulder, I felt myself jump.

"It's ok, Tori." I stare at him, surprise he is taking this so well. "Jade and I broke up a few days ago, If she wants to date other people then I have to be alright with that. Besides you and Jade look nice together. Like a bittersweet couple. She's bitter and you're sweet." Beck smiles, I smile as well. The bell rings and everyone walks away.

"See you later Tori," Andre says. I start to head off to class and I see Cat standing in my way.

"Don't you think it's odd Tori?" she asks.

"What is?"

"You said that Beck and Jade broke up a couple of weeks ago?"

"Yes, that's what Jade told me," I say, trying to think of where Cat is going with this.

"But Beck says that they broke up a few days ago."

"Yes so?" I say, frustrated.

"I just think,"

"Cat I don't think it matters when they broke up. Just the fact that she did is all that matters." I push by Cat and head to class.

On my way to class I see Jade talking to a girl, I walk over to her. My heart pounding. "Hey, Jade can I talk to you for a minute," I say to her.

"Yeah, sure babe. What's up?" Jade says in valley girl accent. I laugh to myself.

"Jade, don't talk like that," I try to make myself serious again. "Hey, just a question. You said you broke up with Beck a couple of weeks ago, right."

"Yeah, sometime around there."

"What," I stare at her. "I thought, I don't understand."

"Tori, What difference does it make when I dumped Beck. All that matters is that I dumped him and now I am free to date you. The bell rings, and Jade walks off.

"Alright, I'll see you in class." I say but Jade doesn't turn around, she just waves her hand and keeps walking.
